Fan Art Friday (23)

This week's fan art is based on Wings by Aprilynne Pike. I was put back to work on the fan art, but thanks again to Laura for giving me last week off! I wasn't going to do this poster at first. I couldn't find decent pictures of Miley Cyrus & I couldn't find good actors for David or Tamani. But in the end, I decided to give it a shot. I scrapped Miley, because in all honesty, I cringe at the idea of her playing Laurel. (And I'd rather gouge my eyes out with a fork than support her acting career) So I played around with actresses until I found one that worked really well. With that, I give you, Wings.

The thing on the left side of her back is SUPPOSED to be her flowers or bloom or whatever. But without anything to go off of besides the descriptions in the book, this is what happened. I probably crashed and burned at my attempt, but you can just ignore it and look at everything else going on in the poster.

If you want your fan art featured on the blog, send me an email at skellington28210@yahoo.com!

I LOVE your version! The girl you chose fits Laurel perfectly, unlike Miley Bloody Cyrus, who does not look like Laurel at all. Who, in my opinion, ought to fade into obscurity or just die. Seriously. Argh, okay that was rambling. But I loooove this! Too bad she can't play Laurel, no, it's Miley the slut. Does Laurel injustice..

I loved how you found a model who's wearing a tank top like how Laurel always does in the book :)
